Perlmooser-Hof, Mannersdorf am Leithagebirge

Perlmooser-Hof in Mannersdorf am Leithagebirge is an Austrian thermal spa in the Leithagebirge hills southeast of Vienna, where bicarbonate, calcium, and naturally carbonated mineral waters provide a comprehensive bathing experience in the Central European tradition of Kurort culture that flourished throughout the Habsburg Empire from the eighteenth century onward, making Austria one of the most thermal spring-rich countries in Europe relative to its size. The triple mineral profile of bicarbonate, calcium, and carbonation gives the water its distinctive character: the bicarbonate softens the skin, the calcium lends the water its mineral depth, and the natural carbonation's effervescence creates the pleasant tingling warmth of a carbonated mineral soak. The Leithagebirge hills — a small limestone range separating the Viennese basin from the Hungarian plain, richly planted with vineyards and dotted with historic monasteries — provide a quietly beautiful landscape setting for this Austrian thermal spa within easy reach of the Vienna metropolitan region.
